Thank you for your persistence in reinforcing the Onecard expectations. I am hearing the request for these cards to be shown in the halls, in classes, in the cafeteria, upon entrance.... I love it. Great job and keep it up!
Mr. Miller has met with central office personnel and we will soon triple the number of scanning stations due to the delay in getting students through the stations. In the meantime, we want the students in the habit of displaying the cards at all times, blue lanyard around the neck, not in the pocket, not inside the shirt, etc. Great job and thank you.



We have just a little over 3 weeks left before 1st semester exams start. As we continue to approach crunch time, every minute of every class is crucial. Bell to bell instruction is vital. Digging into the data to find out what individual students are in need of, using corrective instruction rather than re-teaching to meet all students' needs is a must. If certain techniques were not successful the first time, try something different. Collaborate with your colleagues about successful practices used. Make sure you are in constant communication with your students' parents when they are in the D/F range, or dropping from an A to C. Make contact if attendance or behavior is an issue. Make positive calls to students, specifically the students who need that praise to the home. I can assure you that those positive calls go a very long way!
Consistency is so important with what we do as educators. If we want to maintain the safest and secure environment, we must be visible during all transitions of the day, in the cafeteria, at your supervision posts, checking for dress code, etc. Thank you to everyone who does this on a regular basis. I can assure you it makes a difference. If you are not, please address this expectation immediately. This falls under Standard 1 in your evaluation. 


Saturday School is this coming Saturday December 15 from 8AM to Noon in the Media Center.  Please review attendance in your class and remind students of this opportunity to recover 4 hours of time. 

In case you have not heard, we will start 5 minutes early starting January 3rd. Nothing else will change in the schedule other than students being guided to class at 8:30 and the late bell being 8:35.
